Amazing moment
Posted: July 10, 2012 Filed under: adventures, film 2 Commentsrecounted in this Will Leitch interview with Spike Lee:
What do you think of Romney?
You know what’s funny? I met him in an airport, Reagan National Airport, and we said hello. It was, like, two, three years ago. I was just in D.C. and he was there and he said, “What’s up, Spike?” and I said, “What’s happening, Mitt?” We were in line getting something to eat. So I said what’s up and shook hands. I think it is going to be very, very, very close.
Readers, are you as surprised as I am that Mitt could recognize Spike Lee?
From a recent NYT Magazine piece about *Margaret*:
“One of the reasons [getting *Margaret* edited down to less than three hours] was so difficult is indicative of what [Lonergan’s] great talent is,” Hamilton told me. “I remember doing a reading of that screenplay in his living room years ago — it must have been 500 pages. I mean, it was all day. But it was one of the greatest screenplays I’d ever read in my life.”
Also, his best friend is Matthew Broderick.
This was supposed to go in the comments to the last post. I’m becoming an old man.
